Mike met Elizabeth on Tinder, a popular dating website. He noticed she was wearing a Mets hat and being a Mets fan himself, he decided to connect with her.
Little did he know he was meeting the love of his life.
“I knew she was the one for two reasons: The first, how much she cares about me. She puts me before her, and in order for a relationship to work, you have to sacrifice yourself for your partner," Mike said. "And second, she’s so committed to my son – you would think it was her son, the way she interacts with him. Just seeing the way they interact and seeing their relationship flourish, is a beautiful thing.”
On their anniversary, Mike decided to propose. On his way to work he would see New Yorkers in Bryant Park going about their day and in those moments he would think about Elizabeth. When he saw that the building across the street was called Grace, Elizabeth's middle name, he knew it the place to propose.
Mike then decided to organize a flash mob. He got choreographed dancers to surprise her in the park to some of her favorite songs from Grease.
I haven't been this impressed since I saw a basketball player fake an injury to propose to his girlfriend.
Elizabeth was totally clueless but when Mike's son MJ emerged from the crowd holding the sign, "Will you marry my daddy?" — it was all tears from there.
See the wonderful proposal below and SHARE if you're glad these two found each other!
